i was looking through my phone for a note i'd written myself recently, and i found a BOATLOAD of abandoned and forgotten notes i'd written myself over the past year. i don't have any idea what half of them even mean.

FOR EXAMPLE:

We haven't eaten anything substantive til 10am!
-You mean since 7am.

It's murphy's law!
-Yeah! wait what's murphy's law again?
Everything that can go wrong will go wrong
-Oh that happens to me all the time.

Someone needs to steal a motorcycle

Sticky picky

Making weird voices

-how about 730?
715.
-715? I'M NOT AN OVERACHIEVER

Not in my phone (I am sadly without - bleach water and cellphone are not friends), but I find scraps of paper like that all the time. The few I can read seldom make sense. Most seem to be the product of thinking of something brilliant while half asleep, and realizing later that half asleep = not quite awake enough to write clearly.

I got a file I drag all my desktop scraps into. When it gets to 100 pages, I start to sort through it and find everything from letters I thought I'd already sent to lines of poetry that might actually be reminders of something I forgot to do.

And yeah, Jennifer's right about that line. It would make a superb ending to a YA sci-fi thriller:

I have scraps of paper like that! The best is when I wake up in the middle of the night and scribble something down when I'm still half asleep. It's pretty much impossible to decipher it in the morning. Good entertainment though!

LOL. I don't write myself that many notes, so I can't say this is common for me. On the other hand, I have tried reading through things from my yearbooks, and half the time, I have no idea what my friends or what I'm trying to say. We had a lot of inside jokes. I'm sure those messages were HILARIOUS at the time.
